76% of politically motivated shootings and extremist-related killings in the U.S. over the past decade were of a right-wing nature.

Left-wing motivated shootings were roughly 3%.

So, both sides do it.

You can never recoup lost tax revenue through economic growth. Why? Math.

Assume an economy with $100 in taxable income with a 20% tax rate. The government gets $20 in taxes.

Now assume a 10% tax cut. The government gets 18%. What will the government need to earn to get back to $20?

$111.11

A young man on the streets of Rockdale, 1951. What a classic look. Almost Marlon Brando-esque somewhow.

if white Americans didn’t want Mexicans in California maybe they should not have conquered California from Mexico and then spent 150 years building up an economy entirely dependent on the flow of people and goods across the border just a thought

"I voted for lawless, anonymous, masked, and unchecked police" is one hell of a jump from "eggs cost too much."

DOGE was supposed to save $2T, saved $160B, cost $135B in buyouts, and nuked $323B in tax revenue. So basically, we paid $300B for all that chaos.

"Mass deportation" is the excuse and trigger for authoritarianism. As it was always intended to be.

Notable clip today👇 in light of the news that the Trump administration successfully pressured ABC into suspending Moran
Reposting by request the exchange from Trump's ABC interview about Abrego Garcia's tattoos here on Bluesky 👇👇👇

TRUMP: He had MS-13 on his knuckles, tattooed!

MORAN: That was photoshopped

TRUMP: Terry, they're giving you the big break of a lifetime. I picked you. But you're not being very nice.

This is a consistent theme since yesterday from people on the ground in Paramount.

Yes, there are crowds, there are protesters.

But they are PEACEFUL.

ICE began firing tear gas, flash bangs and smoke bombs once they saw people who happened to be there start filming.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.

Don't give them one.

Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

Earlier today ICE agents hit someone with a car and tear gassed a neighborhood, sparking several fires and disrupting businesses.

Immigrants, by contrast, did not.
ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.

That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Bingo. His approach seems to be to Use the Jews.
Trump's travel ban has nothing to do with a concern for Jewish safety. Don't fall for this.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.

It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men
